I was going to do a Valentine’s Day look but I felt like I wanted to make this post a little more than a Valentine’s Day dress up guide, instead I decided to talk about how to wear red.
Basically I’m going to share with you what colors go well with Red. If you’re planning to wear Red for a special event or just chilling at home in style, keep on reading.
Besides black, white, and red on red, this bright and bold color is also well paired with other colors. Depending on your personality, mood and message you want to send out through your outfit, I’m picked 5 more colors to share with you in this post. Including pink, yellow, green, blue, and orange.
Red alone can represent passion, desire, heat, romance, danger, intense, stress, action, and determination. When pairing it with other colors, it can change the mood of your entire look and feel.
Wearing red and pink can possibly make the bold look feels softer. Since pink has a sweet and feminine affect, it will make you look more approachable, playful and charming when you pair these two colors together.
When pairing red and yellow, it will give you more excitement. They’re a perfect pair for happiness, positivity and enlightenment. If you decide to pair red with yellow on your next outfit, you might find yourself feeling more confident than usual.Because the color yellow helps encourage communication and build confidence.
Thinking about Christmas, how do you feel during that magical time of the year? Excited and full with joy, right? These two colors can bring you hope, joy and excitement. When wearing the color green, the color of energy, harmony and freshness with the color red, it can create calmness and relaxation.
Blue can give you feelings of calm, freedom, imagination, inspiration, trust, loyalty, wisdom, and confidence. Wearing blue with red can be overwhelming at times if you pick the wrong shades. Try adding softer shades of blue when wearing red, this will create a lively look. Picking deeper and darker blue shades like midnight blue will make for a more sophisticated look.
One of the reasons why I paired red and orange together is because Orange is the combination of red and yellow, they’re family. They look very similar but yet unique, powerful and fascinating next to each other. Orange represents enthusiasm, happiness, creativity, determination, and attraction. While red represents strength, power, passion, desire, and love. They will be a strong pair that will gain a lot of attention when pairing them together.
You should now have a few ideas to play with your red outfit next time when you’re planing to wear this bold color.
Feel free to let me know below which color combo is your favorite! I pretty much love all of them but I think I’m going to try the red on orange soon. 🙂
In conclusion, it doesn’t have to be pink, yellow, green, blue or orange. The best way to pick the right color is to pair red with the color that you feel most comfortable to wear with. There is no point of wearing something that will decrease your confidence and won’t let you have fun with it.
You can keep it classy by wearing a black dress with red heels or just putting on a red lipstick. Or you can go all out red all the way from top to bottom. The ultimate goal here is to wear YOU.

Outfit Details:
Romwe Jacket | Boohoo T – Shirt | ASOS Skirt (similar here) | Zara Bag (similar here) | Forever21 Boots
It’s heating up here in Arizona and my oh my I don’t want to think about Spring/ Summer weather! Well, I know I shouldn’t complain about it because some parts of the country and the world are still freezing cold. I better enjoy the cool breeze and sunny days while they last. I’m enjoying it for you too! ?
Before winter is over and before we go ahead and welcome spring here soon, I have one easy tip to share with you today on how to transform your winter look into a Spring look with one basic tip that you can start using right now.
The tip is to start introducing and incorporating Spring prints into your look, like florals, stripes and polka dots. There are plenty more Spring/ Summer prints to play around with but today I’m choosing three of them to show you how I incorporate them into my look.
Today’s outfit is a very simple, classic and neutral. I got my white sweetheart neck longline top (size small, US size 4) and heels from boohoo. My black wild leg pants (size large, I normally wear a US size 6) and jacket (size medium, I normally wear a US size 4) are from Romwe. The pants are a little bit too long but they are a perfect pair with my Peeptoe block heel boots which have the height at 4.2″ tall.
This winter look is a great base to add on accessories for the transitioning. The three ways under one rule I’m doing is to play with your accessories, like neck scarf, headband and earrings.
The first look;
I’m turning classic to a classy look by adding a black and white polka dots scarf to my outfit.
That’s it! Only adding one item can actually transform your look as you can see from my pictures here.
The second look;
I grabbed a pair of striped earrings in black and white to compliment this monochrome look.
I have to say that this look is a little bit more feminine and fun because of the triad ball drop designs of the earrings.
The third look;
I’m wearing a bright floral printed headband.
It’s actually not a headband but I folded a scarf and tied the ends together and there you go, a new colorful headband.
It’s definitely the most fun and colorful look out of the three.
Now it’s your turn to use my one simple tip to incorporate Spring Prints into your winter look.
I hope you find this blog post helpful and easy enough to implement it into your daily life. I will be back in a couple of days to share with you my fun Valentine’s Day look. Be sure to check back in a couple of days or follow me on Instagram (if you haven’t) cause I will announce my new blog post there.
Thank you for stopping by AllAboutGoodVibes today. Have a lovely week, my loves!

Have I mentioned before that I’m obsessed with earrings? If I have not, now you know. Even though you don’t see me wearing earrings in all of my posts, I’m an earring lover at heart. Since Valentine’s Day is around the corner and a good pair of statement earrings can make or break your outfit (or bank), and to help you a bit, I did some homework and found some budget-friendly pairs that you can take a look at, get a pair or two and wear them on this upcoming Valentine’s day.
Before we get right to all of the choices, I have a few tips on how to wear statement earrings for any day and any occasion to share with you today. Let’s get right into it, shall we?
3 Tips to Wear Statement Earrings
Make them pop
The first tip I’m recommending you to wear your statement earrings is to make them pop. You have to make sure that your earrings standout from your outfit because they’re a statement piece and you want people to see them before they compliment you on other items.
The way you can implement this tip is to put on the right outfit. You want to make your earrings pop by wearing simple style clothing. Try to stick with simple cut clothing, not a ruffle sleeve blouse or a tutu skirt. If you can pick the outfit that shows off your neckline or shoulders like a Bardot style top or dress, that will make your earrings visible as you walk into the crowd.
You should also pick your colors of clothing accordingly, use soft and subtle colors if you pick the bright and intense colored earrings and switch them the other way round.
No necklace no worry
The second tip is to leave your neck freely.
You don’t want to overwhelm your neckline as your neck and shoulders will be the display base for your earrings. If you can put your hair up, or have any hairdos that will show off your earrings, this will help emphasize them perfectly.
But if you can’t leave home without your neck accessories, try choosing the tiny dainty necklace instead of a big and noticeable one.
Contrast them with your outfit
Moving on to my last tip on how to wear a pair of statement earrings is to use the color contrasting rules (complementary color theory). If you don’t know the basic contrast color pairing are, youcan head on over to google and search for “complementary colors list”, then you will see all of the pairing color lists come up.
And even though I suggest you to choose your colors accordingly in the first tip, you can still want to play with color contrasting a bit. For example, if you wear a soft peach dress (simple cut of course, something like this), you can pick a pair of Royal blue earrings to contrast with your dress. This tip will make your outfit more interesting and make your classy dress look more fun.
I don’t recommend you to go for a full saturation for both earrings and outfit but to keep your outfit in a softer tone than the earrings.
Below I’ve picked twenty plus pairs of inexpensive statement earrings for you. Hope you will find the right pair to go with your outfit.
Those are all of my easy tips on how to make a statement out of your earrings. If you have any other tips you’re using yourself, feel free to leave your comments below.
P.S. If you have more of a budget, here are some pricey pairs that would be worth the investment.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. Have a wonderful week, love! ?

We’re growing up (aka getting old) so quickly and it’s sad when most of us can’t even be who we are. Since today is my birthday, I wanted to share my thoughts through my life experiences on why it’s very important to live your life for YOU and to be YOURSELF.
I grew up in a society where people love to compare themselves to others. Never feeling secure about who they are. Most people just wanted to be like someone else but never themselves. They cared more about others’ opinions and feelings and forgot to care for their own. They respected themselves less than they should have. They loved to smile but underneath their happy faces, you can hardly find the real happiness inside. Sounds terrible, right?
I once lived in that kind of society and I let that society guide me for the longest time. Over two decades, I never felt truly happy about who I was. It didn’t matter how hard I tried to improve myself (to be like someone else), and even though I achieved my goals, I never felt satisfied with what I put myself into. It was always something else that I wanted to do and be. I have to say that I never appreciated who I was but now I do.
Since I’ve learned a lot from my past, I’ve realized how important it is to be and love who I am. I wanted to share with you today 5 important reasons why you need to be yourself. Let’s get into it, shall we?
You will feel amazing.
The first important reason why you should be yourself is the amazing feeling you will feel. Not being yourself can bring a lot of stress, headache, and depression to some. Because you are trying to live someone else’s life that wasn’t fit for who you are. Hence, by being yourself you can help get rid of (or avoid) all those problems. Then you will be able to decide what is good and not good for yourself by yourself. Which links to happiness because you are creating your own life you love and that feels pretty amazing!
No more pretending.
You don’t have to pretend and have to please everyone around you anymore if that’s not who you are. If you are a pleaser type, good for you. But it’s not good to pretend to be or do something thats opposite of what you want. You will be able to learn to adapt yourself to each situation and you can make the best choice on how to interact with others your own best way. The appropriate way without having to pretend.
You will love yourself more.
At one point you will love and care more about yourself than ever before. You will then know that you are super important as this quote by Diane Von Furstenberg says, “You’re always with yourself, so you might as well enjoy the company.”. That’s right! You will live with yourself until the end so why not give credit, love and care to yourself as much as (or more than) you give them to other people. The below quotes explains this very good too.
“When I loved myself enough, I began leaving whatever wasn’t healthy. This meant people, jobs, my own beliefs and habits – anything that kept me small. My judgement called it disloyal. Now I see it as self-loving.” – Kim McMillen
“Don’t rely on someone else for your happiness and self-worth. Only you can be responsible for that. If you can’t love and respect yourself – no one else will be able to make that happen. Accept who you are – completely; the good and the bad – and make changes as YOU see fit – not because you think someone else wants you to be different.” – Stacey Charter
Increase confidence level.
The second you know who you really are and what ability you have and can bring out to this world, you will gain more confidence in yourself. Because it’s only ONE of YOU who can only give what you have and share what you love to others. No one else can do it better than you. And because it’s only you who is the ONE unique self, you don’t have to compare yourself with somebody else. That will help raise your confidence level effectively.
You can easily achieve your goals.
Remember when you followed someone else’s path and tried to achieve their goals? You don’t have to do that anymore. Because you know who you are and you know exactly what you want. You can start planning and achieving those goals without distractions from other people anymore. This means being who you are will take you to your goals quicker and easier.
Those are just some of my point of views on why it is so important to be yourself. I hope all of the above reasons have inspired you somehow. You can read more of other peoples opinions on HONEY BE YOURSELF page.
In today’s look, I’m wearing a Perfect Glam Crew t-shirt from my Honey Be Yourself collection. I choose to wear it with a patent leather skirt and a leopard coat. Finishing this look with a pair of black ankle boots.

So hard to believe that we’re walking into the new year again. It’s so crazy to think that tomorrow is New Year’s Eve. So much to be thankful for this year and I couldn’t have made it to blogging and Instagramming without all of you.
Since this post is going to be the last post of 2017 I would like to say thank you for supporting and inspiring me always. I wish you the best of luck, success and prosperity. Be the happiest person on earth you’ve ever been from now till forever. I promise I will keep my work coming (quality ones, of course!). ? Please stick around and enjoy more Good Vibes I have in stock for you in the new year.
Now let’s get into our today’s topic, “Last Minute New Year’s Eve Party Outfit“.
If you know me, you would have guessed it already what outfit I would recommend in this post and I know you guessed it right! It’s a little black dress.
I love to recommend a LBD for last minute events. It’s simple but yet sophisticated. You don’t need to think much of it because the little black dress always compliments you. My only tip I wanted to share today, is to pick the right fabric for the occasion. In this case, you can go with Velvet, Satin, Sequin, Metallic or glitter. Just have fun shopping your closet and play dress up until you think you’re comfortable and confident in them.
I’m wearing my dress with my new contrasting heels I got from Dapperwhile visiting my family in Bangkok. You can see a few similar pairs, here, here and here.
My cute little earrings and bag are also from one of the stalls at one of the shopping centers I visited here in Bangkok.
I decided to bring along the H&M black knit cardigan to wear with this look.
I think this might be the simplest New Year’s Eve look that still has a festive feel in it. Enjoy your time and be safe, my friends!
Again, thank so much for all of your love and thank you for visiting my blog today.
Happy New Year! See you next year, my love!
